1977 Topps Star Wars Stickers #18 R2-D2 and C-3PO — Raw

Centering estimate: left/right borders appear approximately 65/35 favoring left, top/bottom roughly 60/40 favoring top — within NM-MT range horizontally but slightly off vertically; no miscut detected. The red border shows no obvious chipping visible at this resolution, which is a positive sign for a 1977 Star Wars sticker. Corners appear reasonably sharp from this distance but the photo angle and image quality prevent confident corner assessment — slight softening cannot be ruled out on the lower-right corner. Surface gloss appears intact with no obvious creases or staining, consistent with the seller's NR-MINT claim. The card back and corner condition up close remain unseen, widening the range; a closer photo could push this toward a 7 or drop it to a 5 depending on corner sharpness.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~60/40 L/R), top border marginally wider than bottom (~55/45 T/B) — centering is acceptable, no severe miscut detected. The black outer border shows some edge chipping or wear particularly visible on the upper-left and lower corners, consistent with normal handling for this 1977 issue. Corners appear to have at least mild rounding — no razor-sharp points are visible at this resolution, suggesting at minimum light wear consistent with EX to VG-EX range. Surface gloss appears moderately intact with no obvious creases visible, but the image resolution and slight angle prevent confident assessment of fine surface scratches or print defects. Range is widened due to lack of corner closeups and the card's back being unviewable; a crisp in-hand inspection could push this toward a 6 or drop it toward a 4 depending on corner and surface condition.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~60/40 L/R), top border appears notably thinner than bottom (~65/35 T/B) — acceptable but not tight. The red border shows no obvious chipping visible from this scan distance, which is a positive sign for this set. Corners are difficult to assess precisely at this resolution; they appear to have mild rounding rather than sharp points, suggesting light wear consistent with EX to VG-EX range. Surface gloss appears present but some wear or handling marks cannot be ruled out at this image quality. No creases are visible, no writing or staining observed, and no miscut indicators are present. The wide range (4–7) reflects the limitation of a single scan-style photo without corner closeups or back inspection.
